Book Description
This is a new volume from the Book of Mormon Academy at Brigham Young University. This volume explores the relationship between the Nephite and the Jaredite records culturally, politically, literarily, and theologically. The first approach is a cultural-historical lens, in which elements of Jaredite culture are discussed, including the impact of a Jaredite subculture on Nephite politics during the reign of the judges, and a Mesopotamia perspective as seership and divination, and the brother of Jared's experience as a liminal one. The second grouping looks at the book of Ether through a narratological lens, all three papers exploring different aspects of Moroni's construction of the book of Ether. The third grouping explores the book of Ether's depiction of women, as it contains one of the most descriptive, yet ambivalent female figures in the Book of Mormon, both historically and in our contemporary era. Finally, the book of Ether is reviewed via a teaching lens. In Alma 37, Alma the Younger explained the teaching value of the Jaredite records, these last two studies examine ways in which the book of Ether in particular can be taught to a modern audience.

Whether viewed through a sociopolitical, literary, theological, philosophical, or historical lens, new insights and a new appreciation for the richness of Abinadi¿s discourse will help readers reignite their passion for the beauty and depth of the Book of Mormon.This volume is written for an informed, Latter-day Saint audience, and seeks to fill a gap in high-quality research and writing on the Book of Mormon. It is produced by members of Brigham Young University¿s Book of Mormon Academy, a group of scholars dedicated to research on the Book of Mormon. As the narrative is viewed from a variety of angles, its richness, beauty, and profound meaning come more clearly into focus.

Book Description
This book, one of the doctrinal classics by Elder James A. Talmage, contains 104 essays by Elder Talmage on various gospel topics that are unique to Mormonism. Topics include the Articles of Faith, the Book of Mormon and the Bible, prophets, apostles, modern revelation, laws and the constitution, democracy, and the nature of God. Elder Talmage is widely recognized as a premier LDS scholar. His seminal work, Jesus the Christ, has been read by generations of missionaries and others seeking to learn more about the life of Christ and become His disciples. Jesus the Christ was first published in 1915, four years before this book. In addition to Jesus the Christ, Talmage is also the author of Articles of Faith, Articles of Faith, Great Apostasy, House of the Lord, Story and Philosophy of “Mormonism”, as well as hundreds of General Conference talks and articles for LDS Church publications. The writings of Elder Talmage are filled with faith and have the power to bring those who seek diligently closer to Jesus Christ. I hope that they will strengthen your faith as they have mine.

Book Description
"Following the destruction of the Nephite people, Moroni works in solitude to complete a long-promised translation of an ancient record: the Jaredite plates. Discovered amid the ruins of a lost civilization, this record has captivated Nephites' imaginations for centuries. Now Moroni sees foreshadowed therein the spiritual wonders and historical tragedies of his own people." -- publisher

Book Description
This third volume by the Book of Mormon Academy at Brigham Young University is a study of the sermon of Samuel the Lamanite by means of four analytical lenses. The first, a prophetic lens, discusses the roles of prophets, the prophetic promise of "prolonged days," and Samuel's prophecies. The second lens is pedagogical, providing readers with a greater understanding of how to teach the sermon. Readers who take advantage of the third lens, which is cultural-theological, will discover a useful framework for comprehending the ethics of wealth in the sermon, witness how Samuel stands up to Nephite discrimination, and benefit from a detailed reading of the sermon that will enable them grasp how spiritual death divides both Christ and human beings. Lastly, the fourth set of lenses, literary in nature, assists the reader in recognizing a newly identified type-scene, traces possible sources Samuel may have relied on, explores sources Mormon may have turned to as he abridged the work, and studies parallels between the ancient sermon and a form of early American speech known as the "jeremiad."

Book Description
After completing my first book "The Huevolution of Sacred Muur Science" I found there were many aspects of Muur history and culture that I touched on too lightly. So, I set out to do a follow up book that more or less expounded on subjects like Joseph Smith and the Mormons, the Poro & Keetowah societies, and the Delawares & Nanticokes. This particular book also has a chapter on ancient & modern round ball sports, after reading it, one, might better explain the overall craze of round ball sports in America. One of the most fascinating aspects of Moorish Science Temple history is the (Pan American Conference 1928) And the so called Moor circle (7). I conclude this book with Addendums dealing with these very intriguing subjects along with the national headress the (Fez). My mother is part Nanticoke and Fulani, my father Cherokee & Mende. My mission, was to represent my family roots through literature along with magnifying cultures not often written about, at least not by one of its own.
